La Cocina
Framed by Spanish eyes,
they'll eat pieces of him
like tapas
with coarse
mouths and wicked
tongues, planting bites
like kisses.
He'll roast in the heated
purr of R -
back arched like
a down-turned parenthesis
fork fingers cleaved to
ass, rolling nakedness
like choice meats on
cooking spits
the temperature just shy
of gourmet.
Across the ocean, he'll
lust like Lorca between
ceviche-white teeth
that'll chew his nipples
like uncured olives
while here
in this house,
bitter.
